Only from allstate. switching to allstate is worth it. welcome back. i'm obsessed with how the government is being run or how it is not being run. is our government even fully functioning. what brought this to mind was the nbc news story that rex tillerson had to be talked out of resigning and he called trump a moron and he designed that he considered resigning but not denying the moron comment. we have two departments with to secretary and homeland security and hhs. they have acting. we have two cabinet secretaries under investigation by the inspector general. and we have an attorney genera...
